Leeds United are in search of a replacement for Georginio Rutter and have targeted a Netherlands international to fill the void. The player’s club has already responded to Leeds’ approach, indicating that the player is unavailable.
Rutter recently made a big-money move to Brighton, leaving Leeds with a significant gap to fill in the no.10 role. Manager Daniel Farke has outlined his desire for Leeds to make four signings before the summer transfer window closes.
Along with exploring options for a new left winger and full-back, Leeds have made an attempt to sign Calvin Stengs from Feyenoord. The talented Netherlands star had an impressive season with Feyenoord, recording more assists than goals.
Despite Leeds’ interest in Stengs, Feyenoord has informed the club that the 25-year-old is not for sale. Reports also suggest that MLS club Charlotte had a deal in place for Stengs, which ultimately fell through.
It remains to be seen if Leeds will continue to pursue Stengs despite being told he is unavailable. Nevertheless, the club’s efforts to bolster their squad demonstrate a strong intent during the summer transfer window.
